Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to electronic devices and methods for accessing weather information with the electronic device.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an electronic device communicating with weather service via a network, in accordance with an embodiment.
  • FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the electronic device of the embodiment of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 3 is a flow chart of an embodiment of a method for accessing weather information through a weather service using the electronic device.
  • FIG. 4 is similar to FIG. 3 , but is shown in another form.
  • module refers to logic embodied in hardware or firmware, or to a collection of software instructions, written in a programming language, such as, for example, Java, C, or assembly.
  • One or more software instructions in the modules may be embedded in firmware, such as an EPROM.
  • modules may comprise connected logic units, such as gates and flip-flops, and may comprise programmable units, such as programmable gate arrays or processors.
  • the modules described herein may be implemented as either software and/or hardware modules and may be stored in any type of computer-readable medium or other computer storage device.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates an electronic device 10 , in accordance with an embodiment, communicating with a weather service 30 via a network 20 .
  • the electronic device 10 may be a digital photo frame.
  • the weather service 30 can provide immediate current weather information.
  • the network 30 may be the Internet.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates the electronic device 10 communicating with the weather service 30 .
  • the electronic device 10 includes a display 13 , a graphical user interface (GUI) module 133 , a weather service management module 17 , and a download module 18 .
  • GUI graphical user interface
  • a GUI application is installed in the GUI module 133 .
  • the GUI application can accept input regarding weather service queries, in one embodiment, the GUI module 133 can process and transmit input of letters.
  • the GUI application module 133 transmits each input of letters to the weather service management module 17 .
  • the weather service management module 17 can build and modify a city result list from an available city list according to the input from the GUI module 133 , when the input of letters reach a predetermined number. For example, if the predetermined number is three and a user is inputting “Boulder”, then a list is produced, once b-o-u are input, containing available cities whose names begin with b-o-u then the list is modified when 1 is entered showing only those available cities whose names begin with b-o-u-1 and so on.
  • the predetermined number can also be calculated by the weather service management module 17 according to a processing capability of the electronic device.
  • the weather service management module 17 can acquire the available city list from the network before building the city result list.
  • the download module 18 can get weather content of a selected city.
  • the selected city is selected from the city result list by user input to the GUI module 133 .
  • the display 13 can display the weather content.
  • FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 illustrate flow charts of a method for getting weather service in the electronic device 10 via the network 20 , in accordance with one embodiment.
  • the GUI application sends a weather service query to the weather service management module 17 .
  • the weather service management module 17 acquires an available city list from the network 20 .
  • the weather service management module 17 builds a city result list from the available city list according to the input letters of the city name when the input of letters reach a predetermined number, the weather service management module 17 modifies the city list if input continues.
  • the download module 18 gets weather content of the selected city from the network 20 .
  • the weather service management module 17 can send a download address to the download module 18 before the download module 18 gets the weather content.
  • the display 13 displays the weather content for the selected city.
